Illegally operating hotels / accommodation facilities in the occupied northern part of Cyprus

The Embassy of Cyprus hereby publishes an indicative list of hotels situated in the occupied (by Turkey) northern part of Cyprus operating illegally. These hotels belong to Greek Cypriot refugees who were forced to leave their properties following the Turkish invasion of 1974, or are erected illegally, on properties belonging to Greek Cypriot refugees, in violation of their rights and their will.

Taking into consideration that the right to property is an inalienable right, as it is verified by the European Court of Human Rights, both in individual and interstate cases against Turkey (which is held responsible for the continuous occupation), the use or exploitation of the abovementioned properties belonging to the lawful Greek Cypriot owners without their consent is illegal and trespassers run a serious risk of facing criminal proceedings and charges, either in Cyprus or elsewhere, leading to severe penalties and high compensation (EU Council Regulation 44/2001 of 22 December 2000).

The Embassy of Cyprus would like to warn citizens and residents of Qatar and other countries of the Gulf who wish to travel in the northern part of Cyprus that staying in these hotels is illegal and advices them to seek accommodation in hotels and other establishments belonging lawfully to Turkish Cypriots.
